« Enough of Art. It’s Art that kills us. People no longer want to do painting: hey want to make art.” (Pablo Picasso) 干__艺术 __(gan yishu) or “doing art” is a new expression in China, currently employed among artists.
The verb gan sounds like“gan huo” meaning to work as a labourer, a factory worker, to work to make a living. But gan is a homonym for “feeling”, orsensuality or put more bluntly “doing it”. This makes « gan yishu» China’s newest private joke.
To “do art” is way of being, transgressing boundaries because one is and one is more than that“an artist” and in that sense, a revolutionary.
